"run all" but exclude specific tests?

03-01-2009, 10:14 PM

Hi,

I need to run Phoronix Test Suite unmanned. Is there a way to exclude specific test from a "run all"? One of the tests asks to close a window to continue. I don't want to uninstall this tests as it might be useful to run it by itself later.

I can easily add this in the next PTS release, but for now there isn't a clean way to just skip one test.

What you could do as a hack is just go into ~/.phoronix-test-suite/installed-tests/<test-name>/ and delete the main file (usually the same name as <test-name> but possibly like <test-name-run>). That will make the test not run. Then next time you want to use it, just run phoronix-test-suite force-install <test-name> and it will fix the issue without having to redownload stuff and what not.
